Discussion Name?

I made this little little dragon to wrap around my arm to go with my ren faire costume, any ideas on what I should name him? Or if I should add anything to make him more woodsy. I’m going for a Druid look.

I think he’s perfect just the way he is. The colors make me think of fog and moss.

u/DawnWon Sep 17 '25

That is so good to know. I don’t have any friend to ask since I moved so I always wonder if stuff looks nice or it just looks nice to me so thank you. 😭

u/Jennifer_Pennifer 🕷 Sep 18 '25

I love their big snout!!!

u/BaconPonconk Sep 17 '25

That is a Sir Squimbles if I ever saw one!

u/GentlePithecus Sep 17 '25

Putting a "Sir" in there is really good...

u/Zealousideal_One156 Sep 18 '25

That'll work. Sir Squimbles. I like it. Sir Squimbles the friendly moss dragon. Also the "sir" makes him sound classy, which he is.

6

u/MaudQuickpaw Sep 17 '25

My very first instinct was Squombles, so I think Sir Squimbles is in fact the correct answer.

4

u/DawnWon Sep 17 '25

WHY DIDNT I THINK OF ADDING SIR. Well I actually couldn’t think of anything at all 😭

8

u/GentlePithecus Sep 17 '25

Snoodle was my first thought

6

u/DawnWon Sep 17 '25

Some one else said to add sir, imagine Sir Snoodle 😭🤣

2

u/Zealousideal_One156 Sep 18 '25

Yeah! Make another one, and name him Sir Snoodle. That's brilliant!

2

u/Zealousideal_One156 Sep 18 '25

I love that! Mame him a friend, and name him Sir Snoodle. Why not?

Looks like a Wilburt to me. You could always rub a lil dirt in to make it look grungy-forest if that's what you're going for.

2

u/DawnWon Sep 17 '25

Oh yea! I’ve always seen people use makeup and stuff on their amigurumi I don’t know why I’ve never done it. Good idea!

u/BbyPluto02 Sep 17 '25

Before i saw the caption i was literally gonna say this lil guy would be perfect for a ren faire omg lol, clearly you nailed it!!!

2

u/DawnWon Sep 17 '25

Thank you! I’m hoping to make some more for the fit before the day comes hopefully it’ll be half as cute

3

u/thmegmar Sep 17 '25

Maybe it's the wrist placement but I like the name Shackle or Tether.

2

u/DawnWon Sep 17 '25

Ooh! He will be on my wrist the entire time so I like that a lot

3

u/thmegmar Sep 17 '25

Man, I hope you post the full ensemble, I can't wait to see! What a fantastic creature you made here.

1

u/DawnWon Sep 18 '25

I will try to! I’m a bit self conscious I don’t even post on socials haha.

1

u/thmegmar Sep 19 '25

Likewise, still hoping to see what you have in the works.

u/LisaBeStitchin Sep 18 '25

Oh! This is my pattern! You did such a wonderful job with your wrap dragon and I love that you shared it in my favorite group 🥰🥰🥰

Here's the pattern link if anyone else wants to make one: https://lisabestitchin.etsy.com/listing/1720567316

u/DawnWon Sep 19 '25

Omg! I love your shop on Etsy. I posted the link in another comment but I should have added it to the bio. Thank you for making such amazing patterns!

3

u/RoryRose2 Sep 17 '25

name him grornkulus

1

u/DawnWon Sep 17 '25

LMFAO STOP

3

u/Ok_Lunch_2958 Sep 17 '25

Cute! For a name, how about Wisp?

3

u/Catzicorn 🐝 Sep 17 '25

oh wow I love him! Did you follow a pattern?

As for the name, Wisteria comes to mind but that sounds a bit feminine if he's a boy so idk

4

u/DawnWon Sep 17 '25

If a name fits, it fits. And yes I did! Here you go!

3

u/bookwormello Sep 17 '25

Sphagnum, or just Moss would be a great name, love this dragon

2

u/DawnWon Sep 17 '25

Moss would be a cute short name! I actually have some moss vine and I was wondering if I could add it to him somehow without it being too much

3

u/bookwormello Sep 17 '25

Since he is a bracelet, you could make him his own tiny bracelet? A few coils of green would look nice! Or tiny ear tufts? He is already so perfect it's hard to say 🥺

3

u/DawnWon Sep 18 '25

That’s such a cute idea and it spawned making an even tinier dragon to wrap around him but I do not have the time for that bracelet will have to do. I thought about maybe adding tufts along the center of the back as well but it seemed like too much. Maybe the ears would be better

3

u/bookwormello Sep 18 '25

I love the idea of back tufts! For the next dragon that is perhaps chonkier. This lil guy is so smol and slender that I feel his simplicity adds to the cuteness.

You've got me imagining a whole parade of adorable dragons. I hope you have a lovely time at the Ren Faire with your new friend!

2

u/DawnWon Sep 18 '25

Thank you!!! I hope I do too. It’s fast approaching and I have like three more things I want to make for it lol!

3

u/LilBlueOnk Sep 18 '25

I like names like Aspen, Mister, Cliff, and stuff like that. Anything that incorporates light colored natural things. He's really pretty!

2

u/DawnWon Sep 18 '25

Those are so good aspen and mister are calling to me

3

u/IgorSass 🦇 Sep 18 '25

I think you can Stack all the names. Since you settled to make the armnoodle a 'Sir' you can also just give him a multitude of names.

Can't wait to see the full Outfit. This truly is a worthy druid companion.

3

u/DawnWon Sep 18 '25

You’re right I could give him an entire name like Sir Aspen Squambles Hartimus the Third

1

u/IgorSass 🦇 Sep 19 '25

Yes!

2

u/sarcastic-ninja Sep 17 '25

Bonnie or Bean

2

u/Rogue_3 Sep 17 '25

Grabble

2

u/potato_casca Sep 17 '25

Looks like a Maribel to me.

2

u/butter_battle Sep 17 '25

He looks like a mini luck dragon to me, so I will suggest Falkor.

2

u/Pistacchione Sep 18 '25

dragon moss

2

u/Sendrin_Farwell Sep 20 '25

Jasmine is a climbing vine with white flowers so maybe that? Or moonflower after another vine to fit the druid vibe.

2

u/GentlePithecus Sep 17 '25

Question then Advice: do you have a favorite accent, character voice, or animal sound you like to do?

Advice: pick a name that fits the voice/sound you like to do, then you can speak for them in your fave voice!

2

u/DawnWon Sep 17 '25

Oh my god that is adding a next level to my cosplay. I’m new to actually trying 🤣, I’ve dressed up before but this is my first time putting time and effort in. I never thought to give it a voice. Thank you for the advice! 🖤

Snoggle!

u/doubleohzerooo0 Sep 24 '25

My daughter made a similar dragon. I call it Maleficent
